‘The fight was worth it.’
It’s fair to say that being the first of any adventure or achievement does have added pressure. You want to be the first to open the door to others, and you hope you’re not the last.
This is a necessary conversation to be having. I wrote a whole chapter in my upcoming book about being a woman in politics because I wanted people, particularly young women and men, to have some sense of what it is like to break through barriers. I tried to put in context what my life was like before I ever stood on the stage in Philadelphia to accept the nomination of the Democratic Party. My husband had a powerful story to tell about his upbringing and his background, and Barack Obama had a unique and powerful story to tell. Few people would find my story quite so compelling or dazzling because I came of age as a young woman in the middle of the country in the middle of the last century. But I think my story, like the stories of so many women of my time, is as inspiring as any other—and it really is the story of a revolution. I came of age at a time when things were starting to change dramatically for women. It’s an important piece of our history that needs to be retold and understood so that the young men and women coming behind us understand that the movement toward women’s equality is just as urgent and vital as ever.

Hillary Clinton is our legitimate 45th president of the United States of America. She is my Madame President and one of our greatest Founding Mothers.
I have voted for her three times. First time was in 2008, the other two times in 2016. She is our people’s popular choice by over three million more votes.

Sabrina,
Yes, indeed, she is the legitimate 45th president and I’m not so sure she wasn’t the legitimate 44th president too! How many guys have won the popular vote twice and did not make it to the WH?
I am so looking forward to getting her book. She is already being attacked by the media for what she says in it and the Washington Post has written an article criticizing the newly luanched media platform “Verrit”, which is Pro-Hillary, which I’m sure is why they have to try to undermine it’s credibility before it has a chance to get off the ground. All the more reason for us to participate in and support this great resource of information which has not been tainted by bias and the Hillary Derangement Syndrome which still abounds.
BTW, I voted for her 3 times too! Would vote for her again. I’m still here and I’m still-4-Hill!

As soon as the book is out, in 2 days, all the dogs will start barking, louder than they already are! Let’s defend her and protect her from these vicious dogs’ bites!
Hillary deserves better!
She should have been in the White House! She had earned it!
